Sheikh Hamdan toured the new facility, during which the director of the centre, Hana Tahwara, briefed him on the new services offered and the centre’s treatment success rates, which exceed the international average, reported state-run Dubai Media Office.

The director general of the Dubai Health Authority (DHA), Awad Saghir Al Ketbi, said that the fertility centre provides treatment to families both from within the UAE and outside the country.

The DHA aims to further develop the centre by equipping it with state-of-the-art equipment and skilled medical experts.

Along with other public and private healthcare facilities, the centre is expected to enhance the offerings of the emirate’s medical tourism sector and attract more medical researchers and professionals to the country.
